In my book, this guy, Gandhi and MLK are the great triumvirate of the most overrated "morality teachers" in the history of the world. Of course, the Llama was scheduled to become the religious dictator of a country full of poor superstitious folk, when the Red Chinese invaded and killed tens of thousands to save them from such a fate.

I'll go with you 66%, brother. Gandhi and this guy are evil and overrated. But, while MLK gets perhaps more credit for his later career than is deserved, the Montgomery bus boycott of 1956 is a legend in liberty. Any later economic and personal transgressions pale in comparison.

The rendition of Montgomery in Robert A. Caro's "Master of the Senate" is stunning. MLK was the Fleetwood Mac of freedom fighters: all the attention paid to his later work with the great genius all but forgotten.
